1. Congratulations on this achievement. You’ll be hearing from me a lot.

2. Ever since I read in Nigel Roebuck’s column about how wonderful the old Interlagos circuit used to be I’ve been obsessed with it (I’m actually a “circuit freak”). I’ve been trying to get some footage and videos of GP racing on the old circuit, but to no avail. I want to persuade one of the computer experts who develop racing circuits for the Grand-Prix-Legends game to have a go at the Interlagos circuit, but I need to give him this information.

Keep in mind that Interlagos goes all the way back the 1930's and was the site for many of Brazil's early international racing efforts.

I am always sorry I never got to see the circuit up close and personal prior to its being changed.

I guess I need info of the circuit as it was in 1967, because that's the season of the GPL computer game, but as far as I could see at Forix the circuit was changed little before the big change in the 80s. In fact I would be glad for any info on the circuit up to 1980.

The layout for the 1972 non-champ race and the 1973 WDC round were the same as it was in 1967. Which is the same as it was....
